Recipe: Crackslaw

Crackslaw is one of my favourite keto dishes. It's easy and quick to cook, and dirt cheap. Made primarily of ground beef and vegetables, it's a great option for a keto meal, and non-ketoers will like it too!

Ingredients:

500g ground meat (I use beef, but chicken or pork is great too- the higher fat %, the better)

4 cups of cabbage, chopped finely OR a bag of shredded slaw mix, no dressing

1 package of shirataki noodles (or kelp noodles or shirataki rice)

1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari or coconut aminos)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1-2 green onions, sliced finely

Sesame seeds and sriracha, as a garnish

Brown meat in a large frying pan, preferably one with a lid, add green onions and stir, cook for a few minutes. Add cabbage, and mix into the meat mixture- there will be a LOT of cabbage, but it will cook down. Leave for a few minutes, then add seasoning and about half a cup of water. 

Cover, stirring every couple of minutes to make sure the cabbage cooks evenly.

Prepare shirataki noodles to packet directions. If they are in brine, rinse them VERY THOROUGHLY. Add noodles to the cabbage mixture once the cabbage has shrunk and softened considerably. Cook for 3-4 mins, to allow the flavours to infuse into the noodles.

Plate up, and add sriracha and sesame seeds as a garnish to taste.

Heart shaped sriracha swirl optional.
